The (updated) 'rules' from our Just Shagging Originator

Maintain a relaxed attitude at all times - drink if you want too, especially on your birthday. Thread precedent dictates if you drink to excess you will get a BFP (but not recommended). Horse-riding and other dangerous activities are also actively encouraged.

Covet thy husband and enjoy every minute. Shag at ever opportunity - shag-capes and awesome superpowers optional.

Keep acronmyage to a minimum! EWCM is now to be referred to as 'pant snot'. Try not to get sucked in by Fertility Friend (at least for a while), but knowing where you are in your cycle and furkling for pant snot is most definitely allowed. If you're a midwife, you can even get other midwives to furkle for you Grin

Keep us up to date with gossip!

Most of these rules are well and truly broken!! But we try to chill - honest

I agree with Josie go get your teeth seen to you lot. I'm loving being able to eat on both sides of my mouth and being able to use mouth wash (turns out after all these years I just need alcohol free stuff), esp as I'll very shortly not be able to clean my teeth for a good 8 months!!!

Have joined the June 2011 thread and there are just so many and none of them is as mental the rest of us (well apart from TTL of course [hgrin]). Went to type viroid before and had to stop myself [hsad]

JosieSmith1 · 20/10/2010 16:21

All those with dodgy teeth - get them seen to!!! After the malarkey I had with mine I would recommend getting it seen asap! I know that's not what you want to hear [hgrin]

Milano what was up with your friend's kidneys? I have kidney problems, dr said I would need to be monitored more closely if when pg.

takethatlady · 20/10/2010 15:56

Congrats milano - does this mean you're being all official now too? Get the dentistry done, it'll be fine.

I have a tooth that kills when my electric toothbrush touches it near the gum, but is otherwise fine. I am ignoring it ... Confused

Hello lovelies!
TTL Fingers still crossed for you - get thee to a doctor and get it officilised!
Nomore wayyyhhheeeyyyyyy! glad it's now 'official' [hwink]

miffles that's exact-er-ly what the pre-seed is all about. I was sure it was my problem, because I never had a whole lot of pant snot and I read that pre-seed (or that cough medicine) can help and "ta da" - updiffed [hgrin].
I am trying to be very practical and not get excited because I have had to have dental surgery done and am a teensy bit worried about the consequences. I called the midwife from my 1st pregnancy and asked for advice and she said not to worry and the amounts of painkillers used are so low it's not worth worrying about. She also said it needed to get done because it's not good for the baby to have bacteria floating around in your system. I can't help but worry though - I know it's best avoided, but I was told I couldn't aviod it. A friend of mine had something wrong with her kidneys when she was preggers and ended up in hospital with all kinds of medicine in her. Baby's fine.

JosieSmith1 · 20/10/2010 15:19

I'm up for joint 2ww madness and test fest [hgrin]

takethatlady · 20/10/2010 15:19

Love the test-fests!

vallinna no-one has the right to laugh at anyone else's POAS moment. We've all had them Grin

Yes! I was thinking that - fell off a kerb, sprained my ankle. Although it does mean I'll have to remember to hobble all day and all night, and DH's mum will be bringing me restorative drinks of all kinds and dishing out medicine Grin Sort of makes me feel guilty. And naughty [hgrin]

NervousNelly · 20/10/2010 15:18

frak I think so!

Well to make the most of not being up-duffed, I have registered with our local dentist, check up next Thursday. On the same day I am also having my smear test. How does that sound for a fun day Envy

frakkinstein · 20/10/2010 13:55

Will there be another test-fest?! They were weirdly comforting all going mad together....

Congrats on the 2 sticky beans!

NervousNelly · 20/10/2010 13:43

They say that in a household of girls, they'll all start to align cycles. I think it's happening here...... We seem to have lots of people clustering at the beginning of their cycle :)

So I can't think who (apart from the epitome of resolve, miffles, is at or near the 2ww?

BrassicaBabe · 20/10/2010 13:12

So CD6 for creme, CD5 for josie and CD4 for me. so we're already lining up the next crew of mad 2ww'ers!

Congratulations for coming out of the BFP cupboard nomore! [hgrin] I bought schloer and elderflower presse when I had my BFP. Although the elderflower one is better with gin or vodka!

haha for your friend takethat

Sorry for red-fecker nervous [henvy]

vallinnapod · 20/10/2010 12:32

Yay NMCB!!

TTL - I'm loving the tubey grip idea. Can you say that you fell off the kurb/tripped over something??

Thanks for not laughing too hard at my POAS moment Grin

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 20/10/2010 12:23

No wonder you're an Engilsh lecturer TTL. You're so good at telling stories.

takethatlady · 20/10/2010 12:03

Aww congratulations to your friend josie that is an amazing milestone. Sounds like you're a lovely friend to her, too [hsmile]

Forgot to tell you ladies a funny story. Didn't happen to me this time, but to a friend who's just begun working at Oxford Uni in a junior temporary post. She had to go to a big posh dinner at her college where a Booker-prize-winning novelist was the guest. After dinner the Fellows went for a 'second dessert' and some sort of ritual where they pass the wine around three times. The novelist suggested that when people received the wine they have to say a line of poetry (what a total knob end). My friend started panicking and couldn't think of anything to say, but went with the first line of Beowulf which she had just been teaching. Then came the turn of a young, newlya-appointed female scientist, who said she did not know any poetry. Instead of letting her not say anything, the whole room started saying 'come on, of course you know some poetry. COME ON!'

In the height of embarrassment, the girl resorted to a line from ....... Poker Face [hgrin] By Lady Gaga [hgrin]. She didn't go for 'I'm bluffin' with my muffin' but 'Russian roulette is not the same without a gun'. Another young Fellow tried to help her out by saying 'The next line's
better - 'And baby when it's love if it's not rough it isn't fun'.' Grin

Apparently a lot of the older Fellows could be heard scratching their heads and saying, 'Who is "Lady Ga-Ga"?'

Spat my drink out when I was reading my friend's email about this. Thought it might tickle you ladies too [hgrin]

JosieSmith1 · 20/10/2010 11:57

Morning everyone

I tried to post on here last night but stoopid phone wouldn't let me press post message?!

Have ordered my GHDs and they should arrive tomorrow!!!! [hgrin] [hgrin] [hgrin] Can't wait! Got fab news from best mate too (no she's not pregnant [hgrin]) - she has anxiety problems and panic attacks and struggles to get around on her own, but yesterday she went into the main shopping centre in town and went into a couple of shops on her own! It's the first time in 2 years she's been to town so she's really really pleased.

Nothing much to report here, only on CD5 so nowt much going on.

Hope everyone is having good days (but is wrapped up warm)

takethatlady · 20/10/2010 11:45

I've never had a self-saucing pud either! But I'm going to now [hsmile]

Sorry about CD1 nervous. Bring on shagging for next cycle? Glad you're okay about it.

CONGRATULATIONS NMCB. Yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaa. Really glad you made it past your milestone and have let it all sink in! My DH is still being unbelievably cautious. I took another digi this morning (I'm out of tests now and will stop testing, I promise) and it said 'Pregnant' before I'd even pulled my knickers up [hgrin]. Still 1-2 weeks though. I reckon I'm only somewhere between 4+1 and 4+3. I was 4+2 last time. Still, it seems weird I got a really really strong BFP on CD10, so perhaps I am approaching five weeks ... can't be 100% sure.

Anyway, all going well here. Sticky still stuck. Boobs still hurting. BFP still P.

Was going to go to the doctor tomorrow but I'm now thinking I'll leave it another week. It can't hurt, and I'd like to feel a bit more confident about the pregnancy before I go, fill in all the forms, and then have to ring them up with bad news two days later (like last time).

I have been at work for three hours and all I have done is google miscarriage stats and go on MN threads. I need to do some work!!!

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 20/10/2010 11:38

well my lovely viroids. I can finally admit it. I am up the duff![hgrin][hgrin]Grin Sticky bean is still stuck.

DH had his first 'communication' with sticky bean last night. My stomach is no longer my own Grin. I'm making a celebration meal tonight and we're on the hard stuff (scholer) now.

Wonder how TTL is getting on today?

[hsad] for CD1 Nelly better luck next month. So Miffles you're next to POAS then?! (And what Brassica said about self saucing. Can't believe you've never had a self saucing pud before!!)

Hope everyone else is well xxxx.

NervousNelly · 20/10/2010 11:19

By the way BB, pmsl at "hard as nails"! In fact, just Scottish and tight, so too mean to waste the 20p test [hwink].

NervousNelly · 20/10/2010 11:15

Morning all!

Well- CD1 for me :(. Not a particular surprise so not totally down, just in a minor sulk [hhmm].

cremegg I have in my heart of hearts known I wasn't up-duffed hence it was just a matter of time. I had NO symptoms, not even clicky joints or sore ankles or tingly hands Wink. need to plan next attempt carefully due to OH being away for a few days, very inconsiderately.

In other news it was -1 this morning, very frozen puddles so must have been brrr overnight .

cremegg · 20/10/2010 10:28

Morning/Evening!!
Am on CD 6 here... so hopefully will have a good wknd ;)
Went to woolies (food shop) on way home and found grapefruit juice and brazil nuts in my basket! Blush
am v impressed with miffles and nervous don't know how you have done it!!? i was terrible and i dont even think we BDd nr ov!
TTL could always go with the dodgy stomach excuse, no one argues with the squits! Could also work for not drinking in eve if they notice?! tho maybe the OJ will look like a bad choice.
nomorechoc it was freezing here in winter... 4 degs in the mornings/evenings and NO heating, brr! am back in the UK for 2 weeks over xmas tho so dont worry, will get a decent dose of winter! hehe!
a friend txt me yesterday after her 12 week scan...am v excited for her but gotta admit a little Envy !! and i almost find myself telling her i might get upduffed soon... such a big mouth... i managed to restrain before looking nuts tho!
lol to the short, back and sides curly top look btw, cannot even imagine how that looks?! worst 2 hair do's for me were courtesy of my mum... too short fringe and a home dye blonde orange! yuk!
GHDs are def a household need josie (tho my DH prob wouldnt get it!) mine have lasted since 1st yr at uni (clearly student loan was used well)but totally with you frank on the curling tongs... i just can't do it, its easier to use GHD to make waves than tongs!
i was planning on making 'home made brek bars' this eve (never done them before) but now can't be ars*d... the eco guy at school made me feel bad about all the packaging around brek bars... but now have several bags of nuts etc all in own bloomin packaging anyway!?
Confused

Aaaah twisted ankle - what a great excuse! It doesn't require too much in the way of acting skills and it doesn't involve people panicking about my fainting fits ...

On the other hand a bandage is going to totally ruin my lovely dress ...

BrassicaBabe · 20/10/2010 09:44

Morning viroids. Working from home today. So no-one looking over my shoulder! Grin

We've got a strong pair of 2ww'ers in nervous and miffles. Are you sure you aren't peeing in/on things and not telling us?! Hmm

Josie glad you like your hair. And you are right, GHDs are essential household items!

KC well done on the returning hair Smile I'd want to leave it well alone too!

Nomore I make a great self-saucing choc pudding thanks to Goodfood magazine. It's self saucing miffles in that you pour water, sugar and cocopower over the cake mixture and stick it in the oven. the water mixture sinks to be bottom and becomes a great sticky sauce.

Did ATM write that post about internet pg tests?! Hmm I'm going to pee on all 100 of my sticks and no-one can stop me! Grin

Don't worry vallinna I POAS once when I was on the pill too! Grin

takethat I've got to make a similar excuse. We've got a big work night out next week involving an overnight stay. But it will be CD11 for me and I have ov'ed on the last 2 cycles on CD12. So need to stay home to shag!! Can you stick a bandage on your ankle and pretend you've twisted it?

Right, so we've got our upduffed girls and the hard-as-nails 2ww'ers. Where is everyone else in their cycles?

takethatlady · 20/10/2010 08:57

Errr... didn't make that clear. Obviously I will tell them I have fainted or have been sick, rather than actually pretend to faint or be sick there and then Grin
